can anyone reproduce this (F2012) and confirm everything i write 
below?  before you do, SAVE ALL OPEN DOCS, you will need to close 
without saving to revert and will need to reboot finale.

if you can, let me know if you are on mac (like me) or PC

1) call up dialogue for a text expression using opt-return on the handle
2) click on shape (bottom left)
3) the OK button is greyed out but works: exit dialogue to return to the score

the following should result:
- a blank appears with a handle (this is expected, since is now an 
undefined shape instead of text)
- when you relaunch the dialogue the original text is gone (i think 
this is intentional but find it poor design)
- the item no longer appears in the expression category list where it 
was, but appears in the miscellaneous category list
- any metatool assignment has been removed from the original item and 
is assigned to the next in the original list
- the original metatool assignment from the next item in the list has 
been removed
- undo menu commands stop working, edit does not show up in list
- undo will not work in this or other docs until full restart of finale

to undo what you have done, close without saving
